> I see this error message in two places:
> * after downloading a Cordova version for Android from within the new project wizard
> * when opening the Properties pane for a hybrid mobile project in Project Explorer
> Is this error message necessary? If I click cancel for the error message I can still continue with the wizard without issue and create a viable project. And why do I have to have the Android SDK location defined to create a project that I only want to run with CordovaSim, which itself doesn't need to know about Android SDK? I think the error message should be removed.
> Alternatively, if the message must persist then it would be better if this info was not reported to the user as an error message. For example, Run as > Run on Android Emulator presents the user with a friendly prompt stating that the Android SDK location is not defined and do they want to define it now. This is a better user experience.
> But getting rid of the message altogether would be preferable.
